Berean Study Bible | International Standard Version |
1A song of ascents. Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion. It cannot be moved; it abides forever. | 1Those who are trusting in the LORD are like Mount Zion, which cannot be overthrown. They remain forever. |
2As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds His people, both now and forevermore. | 2Just as mountains encircle Jerusalem, so the LORD encircles his people, from now to eternity. |
3For the scepter of the wicked will not rest upon the land allotted to the righteous, so that the righteous will not put forth their hands to injustice. | 3For evil's scepter will not rest on the land that has been allotted to the righteous, and so the righteous will not direct themselves to do wrong. |
4Do good, O LORD, to those who are good, and to the upright in heart. | 4LORD, do good to those who are good, and to those who are upright in heart. |
5But those who turn to crooked ways the LORD will banish with the evildoers. Peace be upon Israel. | 5But for those who choose their own devious paths, the LORD will lead them away, along with those who practice evil. Peace be upon Israel. |
